Here some hints abot the Amiga Filesystem who can be really usefull for installing Programms who have no installscript at all. A lot of software you can just copy somewhere in a directory on your Harddisk and it will work fine from there.  However sometimes you'll get an error like that or something simillar when you try to start the programm:

Please insert xy into any drive:

You now have to do this, to be able to use the programm:

write the following line in a cliwindow:
assign xy:

test it with the following command:
dir xy:

You should now get a list of all the files of the programm

Put this line in the file s:user-startup and the programm will most likely work after the next reboot.
